Hi All,

So one evening after a few drinks, one of our number who knows who he is but can remain anonymous said something about a personal challenge to mark the passage of time and to raise some cash for the Ickle pickles charity in the process. 

The Ickle Pickle Partnership raises funds for Neonatal units who treat premature and sick babies aorund the UK.  All monies raised on this challenge will fund an Incubator which will treat over 500 babies during its life in a NeoNatal Intensive Care Unit. 

So the Ickle Pickle Peleton is cycling the 210 miles of the Trans-Pennine Way from Southport in Lancashire to Hornsea in Yorkshire over 3 days this July.

The Lycra clad Peleton members (in no particular order) are:

Nick Gibson

James Morgan

Mike Robinson

Anna Duttson

Jim Holiday

Jonny Hatton

Paul Goss

Jon Greenhalgh

Felix Greenhalgh

Andrew Marsh

Neil Spencer
